The research is carried out by the Institute of Archeology (T. Tkalčec) in cooperation with Vektra d.o.o, Varaždin. In the area where different ecclesiastical and military orders as well as nobility have placed their properties and estates in the Middle Ages, an interesting point is represented by the site of Osijek Vojakovački-Mihalj. There three mediaeval units have been investigated by geophysics and archaeological excavations: manor house, earth-and-wood fortress and Romanesque church. LIDAR survey should provide a deeper insight into the relations and communications of Mihalj with other known settlements and settlements, and we expect discovery and new locations from various archaeological periods.
